now im into death metal, heavy metal, grindcore, black metal etc... all that stuff, but think twice about some bands like slipknot i was reading up on them and they started off with a different singer and an underground metal band ..... i mean so what if there in it for the money, You wanna high paying job and ur good at writing whining lyrics that ppl can relate too so be it, there not true metal ... but thats the thing they come closist too (metal,rock,hiphop) and then there are just fag bands like deftones that say there good but they suck ass and no1 likes em :)
Linkin Park, Deftones, Disturbed, Static-X ... and metallica are slowely turning nu-metal i hate to say it coz they dont do solos anymore and they show them on tv :(

Sure ok, Disturbed, Linkin Park, whoever else you say is "nu-metal" well, I could give less of a shit if you called Linkin Park the most hard core boy band, because they kick ass!

a term invented by the media to categorize any form of heavy/hardcore/aggressive music that comes from 1990-...
very unpopular with fans of "true" metal from the eighties or "black metal"or anyother kind of music meant for retards who seem to think its hardcore to hate music that sells so instead watch bands stand with their feet planted on stage with their eyes rolled into the back of their head trying to look hardcore
- another "true" form is speed metal which constains high speed drumbeats and alternate picked power chords over monotone "dark" lyrics with a pathetic attempt at singing, but of coarse its considered good because it is not nu-metal
bands such as tool, system of a down, deftones, (which are not metal, they are of far better quality then any metal bands)
are given a hard time by people because of the creation of this false genre regardless of there amazing live performances and unbelievable vocal abilities.
nu metal does not exist, it is horseshit
metal is not original as some claim, the most original and diverse decade of music by far is the 90's enough of this death-hardcore-satanist bullshit coming from these stubborn, whiney, hypocrites

A garbage genre that has elements of pop, rap, punk , and emo music. These songs are in no way metal, and evolved from a genre called Punk. The name is edgy and stupid. The genre uses computer generated sounds and has no talent. The genre has bands which are good such as KoRn and Slipknot but typically sucks.
Friend-"Nu-metal is my favorite genre of music"
Me-"Unless it's KoRn or Slipknot how can you listen to that garbage."
Friend-"My favorite band is Hollywood Undead"
Me-"I can't even look at you right now, fuck off"

The reason hipsters were born -- in the late '90's, Bizkit and Korn were all the rage. Linkin Park and Staind dominated as well in the beginning of this decade. Since rock stations removed Weezer and Beck off the radio for this garbage, people who used to like rock either turned to online music magazines for guidance or switched to rap instead. Mp3 blogs and internet radio began stealing listeners from rock radio so now, because rock stations play
either nu metal or old alternative (Weezer, Beck), modern rock stations are dropping quick. So next time some pretentious scenester sings some Futureheads song he heard off the OC, thank yourself and your red backwards baseball cap, Bizkit biter.

Dude #1: Dude, how come my friends all watch the OC now?
Dude #2: Uh, because they like to watch hot chicks and listen to decent music.
Dude #1: Are we the only dudes who like to see sweaty bald guys with neck tattos anymore?
Dude #2: I don't know, but it was fun destroying Woodstock and FM rock radio.
Dude #1: Hells yeah!

A subgenre of nu-metal. More mainstream and commercialized than nu-metal, nu-nu-metal depends heavily on samples, electronic loops, sponsorship and merchandising.
Allows nu-metallers to look down on others the same way metallers look down on them.

To do the Nu-Metal Face:
1) PLace your clenched fists against the sides of your head, pressing in on your temples.
2) Contort your mouth and eyes in the way that you might if you were passing a really big shit
3) Rock back and forth slightly.
4) Scream "Noooo! I won't tidy my rooooom!!!" at the top of your pre-pubescent voice.
5) Repeat as necessary, occasionally pulling up the top of your Linkin Park hoodie for effect.
